212-70 Bell Boulevard, Queens, NY 11360

The two-family house at 212-70 Bell Boulevard in Bay Terrace, owned by the Dashti Family Irrevocable Trust, has experienced several notable maintenance issues, particularly concentrated in September 2021. The building, constructed in 1975 and consisting of two stories with three units, faced significant water-related problems during this period, including an emergency-level water leak with heavy flow that prompted two separate Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) complaints.

These water issues affected multiple areas, including ceilings and walls in both the first and third rooms of the first-floor apartment. The property also documented unsanitary conditions related to mold, which was classified as an emergency complaint.

Housing Maintenance Code violations were officially recorded, particularly affecting the first-floor apartment (1FL), citing problems with broken or defective plastered surfaces and paint on ceilings and walls, as well as issues with a missing carbon monoxide detector. Additionally, there was a requirement to paint the decorative wood molding surrounding the building entrance door at the stoop to meet regulatory standards. While these violations were all certified as closed by September 24, 2021, and subsequent complaints from that period (though some were non-emergency in nature) were also closed, the concentration of water-related issues and mold problems during this period represents the most significant maintenance incident on record for this property.
